Hey!


ANSWER:
D. Report any threats of harm to the police.

Step-by-step explanation:
Picking option A as the correct answer would be incorrect. Responding to your cyber bully would only encourage them to respond negatively and they'd have the satisfaction of having your attention. Picking option B as the correct answer would also be incorrect. If a person deletes all the messages received from the cyber bully, then they are destroying evidence of the cyber bullying ever happening. Let's say the victim wants to report the bully to the police, without evidence the police officers will not be able to take action or make report. Picking option C as the correct answer would also be incorrect. This is almost the same thing as option B but it applies for ridding more than messages. If there is anything else the cyber bully did, disposing of the evidence would be something you wouldn't want to do. Again, without evidence the police officers will not be able to take action or make report.

Hope this helps!

Hello!

The safest and best way to deal with cyberbullying is to report any threats of harm to the police.

Cyberbullying is a form of harassment or bullying using electronics. Typically, the bully sends messages that can intimidate you, or it has a threatening nature to it. It includes posting, sharing, or revealing negative, hurtful and sometimes false information about the victim. Reporting any threats to the police can help you feel safer, and can pose a threat to the bully.

So therefore, the answer is D, report any threats of harm to the police.
